Clones from a plant that nanner

you dont know what youre talking about.they should root just as quick as clones from a vegging plant.plenty of growers take clones from flowering plants,and even revegg after harvest.treat them like clones from a veg plant.you shouldnt need to give them extra n if youre putting them into fresh soil.
Thank for the help I know you can take clone from a flowering plant I've done it plenty of times and had great results from it.ive took clone from a plant that was finished and she reverted right back and gave me plenty of clones later on thanks

So u don't cut clones
Yeah, this is how my op works. I have a veg tent and a flower tent.

So I first got some seeds and grew them for 4 weeks, then when I put them in the flower tent I took cuttings and growed them in the veg tent, I grow those clones for 8 weeks and then they go into the flower tent once the last lot have finished flowering, take cuttings and start the process over again.

As you end up vegging your clones for 8 weeks you generally don't need as many plants, as they are quite big by the time they go to flower. Also of that 8 weeks, you are going to loose around 10 days to root your clones.

Hope that makes sense :). This way you ate harvesting basically every 2 months.

Been doing it this way for years now.
 
I know exactly what IM talking about...the success rate is low trying to clone flowering cuts. it slows down the process and stunts the shit out of your plants...why not just make your life easier and take cuts in veg. Im not saying it wont work, its just not good for the plant...your yield will suffer in the long run. and that sir is a fact
The success rate is not lower at all and doesn't stunt growth at all makes plant shout up branches everywhere here is one that I took off Internet for u

I do the same almost but take clones from three week flowering plants to try to cut back the veg time. I veg for only one month that way because the extra three weeks for the flowering time and the lets say 2 weeks to clone and root then replanted and veg till flower room

If I veg for 8 weeks they would be 20 feet tall that's crazy hope u understand what I'm saying how I cut my clone three weeks into flower

Clones should not be taken during flower unless you have as in trying to save a strain your loosing and have no veg plant to cut from. If you use your current crop to get clones you should take them 1 week or better 2 weeks before going to flower as the cutting does stress the original plant and then being in flower it already is stressing a bit from the switch in light times and the new nutrient switch. It will cause issues and slow growth and hurt overall yield.If the original plant went hermie then it is possible the clones will show that trait also as they are exact dna replicas of that mother plant that hermied. It shares the same genes that allowed it to hermie in the mother. I'm not sure what Monster cropping is I have never heard that before but you can slow growth to allow other plants to catch up by simply pinching the top node over which stops the main growth then send hormones to the lower branches telling them to grow while the main stalk repairs and recoups.also to promote rooting you give the plants a higher potassium push then nitrogen as it promotes new root growth while nitrogen is most used to promote leaf growth.

Yeah then the stretch during flower too how tall is your room
Right now the tallest I could let a plant get is maybe 4.5 ft. But I have my whole canopy at 8-12 inches right now, in 1 gallons. I don't expect them to reach 3.5 feet even if they're unexpectedly stretchy. It's all about that space management and lst/canopy training.

Look. These have already started stretching. They will stretch a couple more inches then they will form colas about equal in length to the height of the plant. Well that's when I mainlined. I did try a slightly different training method this time so I am expecting more buds but smaller colas. These are about 7 weeks old from seed, originally grown with a severe height restriction. And without an intake or exhast fan. Don't laugh.

A 20 foot strecth would be an amazing feet lol. Sativas triple height when flipped to flower so if your 100 sativa at veg they would be what 7 feet ish to hit 20 feet by flowers end. or an indica would be about 10-12 feet when flipped to flower to come anywhere near 20 feet.

And this is without training.

I dont do much training. I do fem supercrop and lollipop so I end to veg my plants to about 18 inches tall then go to flower and finish about 3 feet tall when in tents. I have seen 20 foot plants but only outside and in a warehouse with 40 foot ceiling space lol

Do you flower the whole time in the red cups or was that just before they got moved? just curious how that turns out I know I have vegged in those cups but after 2 or so weeks I get root bound and the plants will start to droop and die...Just curious

They look great man I I really have to start training better that's our differences I really don't train like that. But they look awesome and what type of light looks a little dark. I us six t5 lights for veg and also veg a little under 600 hps makes them go crazy. Also you don't do 24 hours light I can see that because of the yellow in the bus sites that's another reason why I do 24 hours of light in veg. So yes u can get 20 feet tall all depends on how u do it I guess so you are right as well. You should definitely get a good setup u could do wonders and I don't laugh because I understand good job get some better equipment to for

Nah those cups were an experiment (when i get to the solo cup contest point, i wanna hit the ground running) they were in those cups 4-5 weeks and the stress brought out the Hermie trait immediately. Cups plus bad genetics = exactly what youd think.

As for droop, was not an issue. I let the cup dry 12 (must've been 32+hrs bone dry) or so hours too long and that's the only droop I saw. They've been cut as of two days ago.

600w conversion metal halide. Since I know I have a Hermie stock, I'm going for oil content over yeild. That's why i'm not using my hps. More quantity means more sacks and therefore tedious work to me.


Been trying to get investors. May have snagged one who's interested in having me make clones for them. Even in bad setups I usually get good clone rates.

look at all that wasted energy on that plant. If I had a plant like that, I would prune the shit out of it so I only had 10 main lines, not 80. Lollipop all the way up each stem leaving 5 nodes.
I make my plants my bitch. If i have a tall lanky plant with thin stems and I know it grows huge dense buds and by week 5 its laying on the ground...I scrog that plant. After growing that pheno for a year you should be looking for ways to maximize the yield. Letting sativas grow tall and lanky having only 3 maybe stems reaching the light and the rest of the plant not getting light is a waste of your time. These plants beg to be trained: super cropped, lollipopped and topped. on my profile a member asked about pruning techniques and i dropped some good YT links there..check em out

It's just the ideas of course u do all that to them but gives great clones in the beginning. I would love to see some pic of your girls
